Conservative Historian

Send us Fan Mail We go from Tudor England to WWI Russia and back to modern times to see what happens when we have leadership vacuums.

Send us Fan Mail We go from the Crusades to Agincourt to 1950s Elections in a quest to learn that doing the same thing over again is not a recipe for victory.  

Send us Fan Mail This week we saw the Left act in the Trump indictment. But how will the Right react? Though the Left never seems to anticipate reactions, they always occur.  We look at governance, education, SCOTUS, Nixon, and even stolen elections to see a distinct pattern.  

Send us Fan Mail In this podcast we look at the fog of war and move from WWII North Africa to the Euphrates to the Swiss Mountains, and meet a great historian along the way.  

Send us Fan Mail Those who have the label RINOs can still be conservative. And those throwing around that term, are often not.  So I am using the new term CINO, a conservative in name only. We look at the history of conservatism to obtain a definition and look at who fits our new label, and who is the real thing.  

Send us Fan Mail Why the Founders fought the revolution, the economics of slavery or the founding of the nation, the 1619 Project gets is wrong, again, and again. Now it is Hulu's turn.  Also here is the link to our first piece on the project from 2020 - 

Send us Fan Mail We explore the history of national anthems and the introduction of an alternative for African Americans.  

Send us Fan Mail It is a movie topic so that means once again my brother Gus joins me to discuss historical movies and the Academy Awards.  

Send us Fan Mail There are many pining for a time before the industrial age because things were so much better.  We contend with that sentiment and note that life for humanity in the 21st Century is better than what came before.  

Send us Fan Mail We provide a conservative antidote to the usual, diseased progressive orthodoxies extolled during Black History Month.  

Send us Fan Mail Unfortunately, tyranny is not brittle or weak, nor is it an aberration.  Liberty and Freedom are what we must constantly maintain.  We explore the threats through using the Star Wars canon, and historical examples to illustrate our points.  

Send us Fan Mail We explore the hard way through Hercules, Gouverneur Morris, and The Who's Pete Townsend.  All of this is not so subtle encouragement for our newly minted House of Representatives.  

Send us Fan Mail This is a scary podcast. Ghouls, Ghosts and Goblins? No, far more frightening. Santos, McCarthy, Gaetz and Boebert.  We talk about the history of the House of Representatives. Take a listen, if you dare! (cue evil laugh)

Send us Fan Mail Does the US have strong allies?  We look at Ming China and World War I, among others, to learn the  answer.  

Send us Fan Mail Trump's record is now 1-4 in elections.  Yet a hard rump of the GOP still supports him including evangelicals.  How did a twice divorced, four time bankrupt, philanderer come to dominate one of the two political parties in the US.  We provide our thoughts. 

Send us Fan Mail We look to  Michelangelo, Mozart, and JFK to give us some insight as to why people gave so much of their money to 30-year-old "wunderkind" Sam Bankman-Fried.

Send us Fan Mail We have lost a great historian with the death of Thomas Cahill.  We discuss his books and why his work was so compelling.  

Send us Fan Mail We look at Cultural Appropriation, try to define it, and go back to the Norse and the Romans to see where it might exist.  

Send us Fan Mail A society is shaped by our popular stories.  We look at stories ranging from Beowulf to the Hindu Gita.  We also note the progressive takeover of our most popular stories to shape culture in their desired image.  

Send us Fan Mail Every election now comes prepackaged with hyperbole about its importance.  We look back to a time, the midterms of 1894, in which the scope of politics was changed.
